Queen Elizabeth Hall, Southbank Centre

Claudia Aurora debuts at Queen Elizabeth Hall, Southbank Centre at the Women of the World Festival, on Saturday 12 March 2011. With a following to rival flamenco, the haunting melodies of Portuguese fado have always held listeners spellbound; Claudia Aurora is its powerful new voice. The singer-songwriter’s award-winning debut album ‘Silencio’ last year wowed the critics as the first collection of original fado songs to be recorded in the UK.
